Abstract (en)
A method and system for providing artificial intelligence for planning and risk assessment of surgical paths to a tumour in an organ. The method and system achieve their objects related to path planning by providing a data-processing system programmed to do at least the following: define one or more risk-of-damage probability spaces within an organ, and, utilizing the defined risk-of-damage probability spaces, calculate an optimum path to the tumour in the organ. The definition of the one or more risk-of-damage probability spaces can be done as follows: at least one functional region within an organ is defined; the defined at least one functional region is subdivided into one or more subregions; and a risk-of-damage probability is associated with each of the one or more subregions such that a higher probability indicates a concomitant loss of function of the at least one functional area within the organ. The method and system achieve their objects related to risk assessment by providing a data-processing system programmed to do at least the following: define one or more risk-of-damage probability spaces within an organ; receive an input of a location, relative to the organ, of a surgical instrument; receive an input of a location of a tumour within the organ; define one or more moves relative to one or more paths, defined by one or more specified path perspectives, from the location of the surgical instrument to the tumour within the organ; assess one or more risks for the defined one or more moves relative to the one or more paths defined by one or more specified path perspectives; and indicate the risks associated with the one or more moves relative to the one or more paths defined by one or more specified path perspectives. <IMAGE>
